mhpgardener | Pruning Moringa & Hydroponic Lettuce Update @mhpgardener | Uploaded September 2012 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
The 5 Moringa trees are off and running, doing very well. They are getting taller than I'd like for them to be. So it's time to do some pruning. I'll cut the tops out of each one in hopes of encouraging more side shoots and a bushy profile. The tree that I topped a few weeks ago responded nicely, so I expect the others to do the same thing.
Also, it's been 18 days since I started the rail system for growing hydroponic lettuce. I have some Pak Choi growing too, and things are looking just awesome right now. My goal is to have full sized heads of lettuce in 30 days. At the rate that these plants are growing, I think that goal is "in the bag" so to speak. :-)
